Hey! I know he's a bit of a rare clone, but would you consider writing for maze? he's from the repcomm books and is endearingly (Imo) professional and surly 👉👈

Not That Hard

Summary: When one story ends, another one begins. Maze, formerly a Republic Soldier, is now a bounty hunter. He’s used to things being orderly, everything has a place, and everything should be in its place. So when he ends up locked in a small cell with the woman he’s been searching for, a woman who’s been missing for three weeks, he knows that everything is about to be turned on its head.

Pairing: Pre Maze (Alpha-26) x F!Reader

A/N: So, I've never written Maze before, but I'm always happy to write any of the Alphas, or any star wars character. His page on Wookieepedia wasn't the best, but I did the best I could. I hope you like it! Also, I've been watching a lot of Numb3rs, so that's where the basic idea of this came from.

Maze leans back against the stone wall, his gaze drifting from the woman sleeping on the singular cot in the cell to the door, and then back again. He’s glad that she’s asleep. He wasn’t sure that she would fall asleep, honestly.

He leans over and tugs the thin blanket a little higher over her shoulders. The blanket won’t do much to keep the cold out, it’s too thin, but it’s enough that she can sleep.

Three weeks ago the University of Theeds reached out to him, telling him that one of their Teachers had gone missing. They said to him that someone had broken into her home, torn the place to pieces, and taken her.

The University hired him to find her since he was something of an expert on finding people.

The fact that she’s alive is a damned miracle, in his opinion. After three weeks, statistics indicate that he should have found her in a ditch somewhere.

He’s never been so glad to be wrong in his life.

Still, the fact that they haven’t killed her suggests that they want something from her. Maze shifts so that he’s sitting on the cot beside her, tired of sitting on the ground.

He needs to think.

Why would someone want a University Professor?

Absently, Maze brushes a strand of hair off her face as he thinks about what he knows about her.

She’s young, barely brushing 25 years old. She’s an only child. Her mom died from heart disease when she was a child, her dad recently retired to a lake house. There’s no other family.

She’s single, and her only friends are people who work at the University with her. Honestly, it sounds like a lonely life to him, but according to her colleagues and friends, she’s seemed lonely or unhappy.

He can respect that.

Maze’s eyes snap to her face as she releases a quiet noise and shifts on the cot, seemingly to curl into his warmth while also opening her eyes. “You should go back to sleep, Professor. It’s early.” He says quietly.

She sighs and shakes her head, “No point. They’re going to be coming soon.” Slowly, she sits up and shifts so she’s able to press her face against his shoulder.

“What do they want?” Maze asks, mentally kicking himself for not asking her earlier. But then, her injuries were pretty severe. It makes sense that he would put that aside.

“I’m a Bio-Engineer.” She replies tiredly, “They want me to tell them how to break into BioGen.”

“Why?”

“BioGen’s biggest thing is weaponizing viruses.”

Maze stiffens and his gaze snaps to her face, “BioWeapons are illegal. Even in the Empire.”

“They weaponize them so that they can try and develop cures for them. It’s all legal and above board.” She reassures, “Even in the Empire.”

“Why’d you leave?”

“A Tenured Professorship at the University of Theeds is a great honor, not to mention it pays very well.” She replies, “It made sense, career-wise.”

“Only there’s a lot less security at the University compared to a Biomedical facility.”

She huffs out a laugh, “Yeah, there is that.” She shifts her head slightly, “But this has never happened before. Ever. People leave BioGen all of the time.”

“And you’re the first one kidnapped?”

“That I know of.”

There are heavy footsteps from the hall and Maze shifts so that his body is shielding hers. The door slams open and three men step into the room.

They’re not big men, if Maze were to stand, he’d tower over them. It burns him up that he allowed men like them to capture him so he would be able to find the professor.

“Professor,” One of the men stalks towards Maze, and he feels her shrink down behind him, “Come on, girl. Are we really going to do this? All you gotta do is give us the information, and then you’ll both go free.”

“Don’t lie. We all know that the moment she tells you what you want to know, you’ll kill her.” Maze growls out.

The man laughs, “Well, it’ll be a quick death, rather than this slow, dragged-out death.”

Behind him, the Professor trembles.

“Is this all of you? Just three men?”

“We still caught you, clone.” One of the other men sneers, “Grab the Professor—”

The first man reaches to grab the Professor, only for Maze to move, swiftly breaking the man’s arm, and slamming his head against the wall, causing him to crumple to the floor.

“Get low, Professor.” Maze orders as he stands and advances on the two remaining men. He doesn’t wait to see if she’s following his direction, as he suddenly has two furious men to contend with.

Unfortunately for them, he’s an Alpha Class clone, and they’re unarmed.

The fight can’t even be called a proper fight. The two remaining kidnappers go down with several well-placed hits, and Maze tosses them into the cell while motioning for the Professor to join him.

“We’re leaving,” Maze says to the woman as he holds his hand out for her.

Nervously she nods and takes his hand, “Where are we going?”

“Well, it was the University who hired me.” Maze replies as he peeks into the hall, and then leads her out of the cell as soon as he notes that it’s safe.

“Um—”

Maze stops and looks at her, “What’s wrong?”

“Just…did they seem smart enough to come up with this on their own?”

Maze stares at her for a long time, and then he sighs, “No. They didn’t.” He’s quiet for a moment, “Alright, there must be something here to indicate who hired them. Follow me.”

Maze leads abruptly turns down a side hallway and leads her into a much larger room. There are computers, though they seem largely untouched. It looks like the kidnappers were more concerned with the games that were playing on the four holos lined up next to each other than the computers.

There are three couches, each other them surrounded by empty bottles and empty pizza boxes.

“Well,” Maze notes as he steps around a pile of trash, “Criminal Genuises they are not.”

The Professor peers at a holo-board next to the couches, “It looks like they have a gambling problem.”

“Lucky for us. It means they probably didn’t delete anything.” Maze walks over to the computers, “Stay close, Professor.”

“Ah…Sorry.” She hurries to his side and peeks around him at the monitors.

Maze flashes a small smile at her and then focuses on the computers. “Hey, Professor?”

“Yes?”

“How’d they grab you?”

“I was heading home from a day of classes, and they ran me off the road.” She replies.

“You were driving yourself.”

“Yeah.”

“Does anyone know your route home?”

“I mean, there’s only one road off of the main campus,” She replies, “But I generally don’t know what route I’m taking home until I get in the car. It depends on the traffic and if I need to go grocery shopping.”

“And you didn’t tell anyone your plans for the evening when you were taken?” Maze asks as he scans something on the screen.

“No. No one.”

“It looks like our violent friends were hired by Levi Kelley. At least, that’s who paid them.”

“Levi Kelley?”

“You know him?”

“Yeah, he’s the head of the Biology Department at the University. I thought you said the University hired you?”

“Yeah, the Dean hired me. This Levi person, is he your supervisor?”

“No. I mean, he thinks that he is, but we’re on the same level.”

“Are you friends?”

“I’ve always been a bit…ambivalent towards him. He’s a good teacher, but he’s kind of a terrible person. Racist, sexist, the whole shebang.”

“And he works at a University?”

“He’s a very good teacher. But he lost his tenure last year.”

“For what?”

“Academic misconduct, according to the rumors.” She leans against his side, exhausted, “The only person who knows the truth would be the Dean.”

“So it’s revenge.” Maze murmurs, “Use you to get an incurable virus, and release it on the school. Did you tell them anything?”

“No, I didn’t. I wouldn’t.”

“They tortured you, Professor. No one would blame you if you did.”

“I’m telling you, I didn’t. I left Biogen two years ago, Maze. I don’t remember any passwords or door codes. And they removed my biometrics from their system on my last day. I swear it.”

“Okay.” Maze lightly pushes some of her hair out of her face, “So they need someone else, a current employee.”

“Yeah, it’s the only way to get inside.”

“Alright. Let’s get out of here and alert the authorities. And get you some medical attention.”

“Yes please.”

Maze lightly presses his hand against the small of her back, guiding her towards the door, “I have one more question, Professor.”

“Go ahead?”

“When my brothers and I were decanted, we were given enhanced aging.”

“Yes, it was the only way for the Kaminoans to get a viable army in 10 years.” She replies.

“Yeah, you think you can reverse it?”

“Reverse it?” She repeats, sounding more thoughtful than surprised. Maze watches as she absently scratches at a deep gash on her cheek, “I don’t know about reversing it,” She finally says, “but I might be able to cure it. With enough blood samples.”

“Really?”

“Well sure, it’s not that hard. It’s just gene manipulation.” She frowns at him thoughtfully, “Look, all the information I need is here,” she lightly taps his chest, “The more of your brothers I can get blood samples from, the easier it’ll be to make a cure.”

“Can you do it at the University while also teaching?”

“I mean, sure. But the University of Theeds is funded by the Emperor. I’m guessing you don’t want the Empire to know about it.”

“No, I don’t.” Maze replies.

She’s quiet for a moment, “Find me a place to work, off of Naboo, and I can help you.”

“If you can cure this, I might just kiss you,” Maze says with a sly smile.

Her face heats and she won’t look at him, “Well, that seems a bit excessive,” She mumbles.

She squeaks when he lightly drapes his arm over her shoulder and tugs her against his side, “No. It isn’t. Come on, Professor. Let’s get you safe.”

Omegas from Sector A [Alpha!Gally x omega!reader] - part 1

Masterlist

Recommendations

Part 1, Extra 1, Part 2 - final, Extra 2

Word count: 5.8k

summary: Y/n was the fourth omega to arrive in sector A, exhausted by the mistreatment of the omegas in the clearing, how will Gally react when another one arrives in the box? What if this time she has a totally different reaction to the others? Note: “Omegas from Sector A” is an interconnected series and Y/n in this story will be called Khloe in the rest of the series, Ava, Lia and Nora are Y/n's from another story. The rest of the series is available on the masterlist. Thank you all!

“No! Not me, someone else get her out of there! I give up!”

Y/n hears a tall blond boy say as he wakes up, an alpha to be exact, but there were many more around her.

“Come on, Gally! Don't be traumatized!”

“Absolutely not, the last 3 times they growled, screamed and bitten.”

“Chicken!” Ava shouts, prompting a chorus from the rest of the group and earning a nasty look from Gally.

Faced with repeated “Chicken! Chicken! Chicken!” he gives up and angrily goes down to the box. He approaches cautiously and when the omega doesn't show any aggression, he decides to hold out his hand with obvious hesitation.

She couldn't remember anything, where she came from, what she was doing there… not even her own name. The last three times? Had he done this many times before? It seemed ungrateful that he should be the first to reach out to someone and be snarled at in return.

The chorus of shouts was beginning to irritate the omega, so with as much calm as she could muster, she reached out and grabbed the alpha's hand, which she understood was called Gally.

For a moment everyone falls silent, the alpha looks at her visibly in shock. Squeezing his hand lightly, he seems to come to his senses and gently pulls the omega up. They both look at each other for a moment, lost in each other's eyes.

Taking a deep breath, omega feels herself relax at the musky smell of alpha in front of her and still doesn't seem willing to let go of his hand.

“That's it? No growls? Screams or bites? Wow!” A voice from the group interrupted the silence and started the noise again.

She could already feel a headache coming on, they were so loud and annoying. Approaching the blond alpha, she clings to his arm, her hand still entwined with his, in search of shelter. Surprised to feel her clinging tighter to him, he turned his gaze from the crowd to her before turning to the others and snarling at them.

The crowd that had gone momentarily quiet at the omega's approach to Gally explodes into a new wave of astonished screams with several of them shouting things like.

“Wow Gally's got himself a girl!” and '“It's Gally's girl”.

It didn't work. She thinks frustratedly and hides her face in Gally's shoulder. Noticing her discomfort, the alpha ignores the way her heart is beating wildly and places his hand on hers that was on his arm in an attempt to offer some comfort. Looking at the group, he turns to Ava for help.

Noticing his desperate look she seems to decide to be nice and shouts. “All right, you idiots! Let them get out of there and start unloading the supplies”

They visibly protest but do as Ava tells them and Gally gently moves to get the omega out of there. Moving away from the group, two more omegas appear in front of them.

“ Hi, my name is Lia,” one of them begins.

“I'm Nora,” the other says.

She looks away from them to Gally, visibly unsure.

“My name is Gally and it's okay not to remember your name. You'll remember it soon enough,” the alpha says softly, making the other omegas stare at him in amazement.

She nods, a ghost of a smile on her face.

“Were you an omega?” Another black-skinned alpha asks, approaching the group.

Gally agrees and the alpha speaks again.

“Well, I think we have a pattern” he pauses looking at her ‘My name is Alby’ he says holding out his hand. The omega, however, makes no move to accept it and holds on to Gally.

“Okay. Gally, can you come with us while I explain things around here?”

Although still in shock, Gally agrees, giving the omega's hand a comforting squeeze.

___

Gally watches the others celebrating at the bonfire. He remains seated next to the new omega while she still clings to him. “They're noisy,” she comments with a yawn, making Gally look at her and laugh at her tiredness.

“I didn't know omegas could be stronger than alphas” she says again, starting to feel more at ease around him.

Gally realizes that she's looking at the circle game that Ava was running that night.

“It's not common, but Ava is a case in point.”

“Hey Gally!” Ava calls out from the circle “Aren't you going to join in?”

Gally watches from where he is sitting with Y/n. Looking at her, he wraps an arm around her shoulders, bringing her close “Not today.”

“If you're afraid your girl will see you lose, I understand,” Ava states simply.

Y/n is quick to catch sight of Gally's serrated jaw and smiles as she realizes the obvious competition that existed between the two. Gently she removes his arm from her shoulders “It's okay, you can go”

Gally really wanted to stay there with Y/n, being with her made his inner alpha want to purr and snuggle up to her. He felt protective of her, but he was also prideful and like two prickly brothers Ava knew perfectly well how to bring that out in him.

Looking again at the omega for confirmation, she nods confidently. Feeling more secure, he gets up and heads towards the circle with a small “I'll be right back”.

“Hi again” the omega that Y/n remembered calling Lia says, alerting her to his presence as soon as Gally has moved away.

She sits down next to her and quickly the other omega, Nora, appears and sits down on the other side of Y/n. A silence falls over the three of them as they watch Gally and Ava fight.

“Gally uh?” Nora speaks, snapping her out of her trance.

“W-what about it?” She asks confused and nervous as she feels her face flush.

“Nothing, it's just that he's not usually the type to make a good first impression on omegas,” Lia explains.

Y/n looks at the two of them, she couldn't understand why he wouldn't make a good impression. He was a strong alpha, tall and broad-shouldered, his smell was quite pleasant and he was far from ugly. He was also quite gentle with her when she was frightened in the box. She was sure that having an attractive, comforting alpha reach out to her gently when she was scared was definitely a good first impression.

Stopping to think about what was said earlier when she was still in the box something seemed to occur to her.

“Was it you who bit him?” she asks.

“Actually that was me, but he had it coming” Nora declares.

“How?” Y/n asks confused.

“I growled and he not only didn't back down, he tried to touch me. It was rude.”

“Wasn't he just trying to help?”

“Maybe” Nora says before silence falls over them again.

“Well,” Y/n begins, pausing, ”he's been nothing but kind to me.”

Lia and Nora look at each other with smiles.

“That's good, but he can be a jerk sometimes” Lia warns ”On the bright side, you're his girl”

“I haven't even been here a day, that title-”

“It's not bad at all” Nora interrupts Y/n.

Lia agrees “Believe me, you'll enjoy keeping it at least until you fit in better”

Y/n looks confusedly at Lia.

“It has its advantages” Nora explains, letting the silence fall again. Something told her that the two of them weren't going to explain much more.

So Y/n turns her attention back to the circle and observes Gally's fight without realizing that a smile is forming. She follows the contours of the alpha, from the veins in his forearms to the muscles in his arms, the freckles that dot his face and his beautiful blue eyes.

Applause wakes Y/n from her trance when Gally manages to pull Ava out of the circle. She watches Gally celebrate and almost loses her breath when he looks at her with a beautiful smile.

Upon Gally's victory, Alby appears to announce that the party is over.

___

“Here,” Gally signals as he sets up a hammock next to Nora's.

“Here?” Y/n asks, she hated to admit it but the thought of being alone at night scared her. Okay, she wouldn't be alone, she'd be with Nora. But she'd be without him.

Gally looked at her without knowing what to say. Nora, who was already lying in her hammock, turned and said, “She's your girl, isn't she? Take her to you, Gally. I don't need any more neighbors, let me sleep.”

He blushes but tries to hide it in the darkness of the night, for a while he seems to expect Y/n to object in some way but she just looks at him “You're really moody. Let's go,” he says to Nora before turning and taking Y/n by the hand towards where his hammock is.

When she's sure they're both gone, Nora smiles to herself. Sometimes they need a push. She thinks

“Here,” Gally says again, placing a new net, this time next to his. This time, however, S/n just smiles.

“Thank you” she says as she lies down.

Gally follows suit and lies down in his own hammock. He watches her fall asleep and sighs. He was so confused, he honestly didn't expect it to be any different this time, but it was. He expected everything but the omega to accept his help and want to stay with him. The alpha in him was proud that she had chosen him but the rational part of Gally wasn't so sure, he was confused as to why she was being so kind to him.

___

Gally wakes up to his hammock gently swaying. Looking over, he saw the new omega lying in her hammock, which was swaying in tune with his. He quickly realized why when the hammocks came closer and she pushed his, causing them both to continue swaying.

Realizing that he was awake, she smiled, “Good morning, Gally.”

“Good morning”

“Y/n”

“Y/n?” He asks.

She smiles “That's my name”

“Welcome to the clearing Y/n”

“Thank you” She says laughing and Gally tries not to melt at the sight.

___

“Builder?” Y/n asks.

“Alby suggested it, but only if you want to. You can watch for a few days until you decide.”

“What do the builders do?”

“We're responsible for putting up the houses, corrals and other buildings”

“We?”

“Well, yes. I'm a builder”

Y/n thinks for a moment “That sounds good”.

___

Since Y/n had been working with the builders for a week, she had to admit that it wasn't very easy to understand what they wanted to do. Their explanations and drawings were confusing and difficult to understand and the only one who seemed to have the patience to really teach her was Gally. Of course, he was the guardian of the builders.

Today was a day when Y/n was supposed to help repair a roof. Because she was smaller and lighter, the boys thought it would be good if she climbed up, although she realized that Gally didn't like the idea very much.

She was alone with Doug and Jack, and while she hammered the timbers they handed her the ones from the ground. She was almost finished when a misstep caused her to break the timbers again and hurt her ankle in the process.

When she got down Doug immediately approached her, but of course it wasn't to check that she was okay.

“See what you've done? You've ruined everything we've been doing for the last two hours!”

Y/n cringes at the alpha's raised voice but before she can respond Jack intervenes.

“Wow, are you crazy? She's Gally's girl!” he says, trying to calm his friend down.

“Is something wrong Doug?” Gally's voice announces his arrival as he stands in front of Y/n protectively.

Doug swallows visibly before speaking, “She ruined part of the roof-”

“She's new to this, these things happen. I'll help her fix it” He says turning away from the other alpha without leaving room for discussion ”But first we need to check that ankle. Come on Y/n” he says placing a hand on her back and guiding her in a gentle way.

“I told you,” Jack said in an audible whisper to Doug.

It was at that moment that Y/n realized what Lia and Nora meant by the privileges of the title “Gally's Girl”. She wasn't going to lie, having one of the most respected alphas in the clearing willing to run to her rescue whenever she needed it was quite a comforting feeling. Why not? Gally was really kind and careful with her, he had looked after her since she arrived and even though everyone said she was his, he never tried to lay a finger on her. Maybe it's good to keep him. She thought as she looked at Gally with a smile.

___

At first that was it, being “Gally's Girl” brought her undeniable advantages and the way everyone was shocked by his kindness to her was great fun. Not only for her, but all the other three omegas in the clearing agreed that it was quite amusing to see how soft she made him. Last year Gally had been teased for being the one to try to get the omegas out of the box but never succeeding, it was really hilarious to see Y/n shut them all up when they argued that omegas just didn't like him.

At first it was just that, until she began to blush at his kindnesses. Until she began to feel butterflies in her stomach every time he flashed her that smile she loved. Until she began to feel goosebumps every time her skin made contact with his. Until she started daydreaming about him. Until she finally realized that she had fallen in love with him.

His tough, strong exterior that hid such a gentle, caring alpha captivated her endlessly. The alpha who looked after everyone without anyone seeming to notice. The alpha who also needed to be looked after but pretended not to. The alpha who needed to be loved.

She understood that. A safe haven, that's all she wanted to be for him, she wanted to support him and repay him for everything he did for her. To return the warm feeling he brought her when he smiled.

He deserved all that and S/n was more than willing to give it to him, she would give him anything he asked for.

So, even when she was fully integrated, she didn't back down. On the contrary, she moved forward, persistent touches, hugs and sweet words. She wore the title with pride and acted as an omega should with his alpha.

Over time Y/n also improved in her work, her ideas and designs quickly winning over the other builders when they realized that hers were much easier to understand than theirs. Gally's proud smile was a bonus.

___

Gally had to admit that she drove him crazy. It was quick and he found himself totally in love. The comfort and closeness she showed him was torture. Especially on bonfire nights when she would sit on his lap and hug him. He wanted nothing more than to bury his face in her neck and smell her, cover her in his scent, pull her closer and kiss her.

Shit. He thought, shaking his head to clear his thoughts.

It took an iron will to resist her and although he loved the attention he still didn't understand why she played with him like that.

When she had first called him Captain he had hardly been able to contain himself. It was normal for the other builders and even some of the other gladers to call him that, but when she did it sounded different. Terrible and deliciously different.

“There's another omega coming today, right? I want to go and see it arrive” Y/n says excitedly although part of the reason is that she wants to avoid Gally trying to take it out of the box. Jealous? Maybe. Probably. Yes.

Gally smiles, “That's what everyone expects. But first we still have things to do. Are you sure Ava can help you?”

Y/n hums in agreement “She said she wants to be here to see the new omega so she wasn't going to the maze today and could help with other things” She says as she takes Gally's hand and starts playing absentmindedly with his fingers.

Shit. He thought, shaking his head to clear his thoughts.

It took an iron will to resist her and although he loved the attention he still didn't understand why she played with him like that.

___

Gally smiles, “That's what everyone expects. But first we still have things to do. Are you sure Ava can help you?”

___

“I'm telling you, you have to be more explicit,” Ava says as she passes a piece of wood to Y/n.

“I literally kissed him this morning” She says as she grabs the wood.

“You kissed him?!?”

“On the cheek, but yes”

Ava sighs in exasperation “He's an idiot, that's not enough for him”

“What do you suggest I do? All that's left is to write it on his forehead… I'm beginning to think he only sees me as a sister or something”

Ava laughs and says loud enough for her to hear from the rooftop “I don't think he'd be hard up for a sister to sit on his lap”

“Ava! Keep your voice down!” Ava laughs “Besides, he'd been drinking a lot that night” Y/n tries to argue but blushes as she remembers.

It was a bonfire night, a new greenie had arrived and after Gally removed him from the circle he joined Y/n. She could tell by his flushed cheeks and irregular breathing that he had drunk more than he should have. She let out a little cry of surprise when he pulled her onto his lap.

He wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her closer. In an attempt to stabilize herself, she put her hands on the alpha's chest. Gally sighs at the feel of her hands on him and buries his nose in her neck gently rubbing the scent gland on her neck. Y/n tries to control herself but her breathing comes out short and irregular. She chokes as she feels him kiss her neck and leans closer just in time to feel him start to get hard underneath her.

To everyone else it was just a drunken display of affection by Gally towards his omega, but the other omegas in the clearing knew that it was a drunken Gally letting his feelings slip out.

That night, Gally didn't let her sleep in his hammock, trapping her in it with a strong hug. Y/n of course couldn't complain and fell asleep on the alpha's chest with a happy sigh.

The next morning he had no memory of his displays of affection last night. When he questioned Y/n about her sleeping in his hammock, she wanted to spare him the embarrassment and said she'd had a bad dream and he'd let her sleep with him. Of course he was teased, but with the hugs and closeness they constantly shared he didn't realize that the teasing was about something else.

The following bonfire night, when she sat on his lap, it was his turn to be shocked, but he didn't push her away.

“Have you ever tried calling him alpha? I'm sure that would be the last straw.”

“You said that when I suggested I call him Captain” Y/n says rolling her eyes.

“Well, okay. I didn't expect his restraint to be so great.” Ava says helping Y/n down from the roof.

“Listen, I'm serious when I say I've never seen him like this with an omega before”

“Maybe because no one has paid as much attention to him as I have. What if he actually finds me boring but just doesn't want to hurt me?”

“Y/n” Ava says, grabbing her by the shoulders and forcing her to look her in the eye ”You're Gally's girl. He's crazy about you, anyone can see that. He just needs one more push”

Y/n looks away from Ava “Here comes a new omega, I love him. I don't want to lose him, Ava.” She finishes, meeting her friend's gaze again, but this time with tearful eyes.

“Oh Y/n, he's yours. Believe me, soon you'll have no doubt about it” She says, hugging her and wiping away her tears ”If it's another omega I'll get it out of there, I promise”

“If?” Y/n asks confused.

“I don't know why I don't feel another one coming on, my instinct doesn't usually fail me” She pauses for a moment ”Like when I say Gally's got the hots for you”

Y/n laughs “Ok. I'll try”

“That's my girl! I mean, Gally's girl!” Ava laughs making Y/n blush.

___

Y/n takes a deep breath before smiling and entering the council room with Ava.

Advancing towards Gally she puts her arms around his neck pressing their bodies together and speaking happily “I'm back Captain” the alpha blushes deeply at the closeness and use of the nickname and his hands instinctively fly to the omega's waist holding her close to him.

Why did she have to do this to him? He thinks as his heart contracts in pain.

When he doesn't answer, she tilts her head in a brilliant performance of innocence. Standing on tiptoe and pulling him closer, she whispers in his ear, “If you don't like Captain, I can swap you for Alpha.”

The sound of her whispering voice calling him alpha almost made him let out a groan.

Shit, shit, shit. He couldn't take it anymore, the whole situation, the closeness, the nicknames, that look in her eyes. Did she really not know what she was doing to him? It hurt, it fucking hurt how she played with him so obliviously without caring about all the damage she was doing to his heart. He couldn't do this anymore. He couldn't take it anymore.

Grabbing both her arms, he pulled them away from her. Without looking her in the eye.

“That's enough,” he says coldly, surprising Omega with a tone that has never been directed at her before.

“W-what?” she asks with a shaky voice, without him realizing it everyone in the room was now staring at them, confused that Gally had walked away and spoken to her like that.

“I've had enough of this. I can't take it anymore!” He speaks but it almost comes out in a scream. He keeps his eyes on the ground but when she doesn't answer he finally faces her and feels his heart break. He thought it hurt when she played with him but as he looked at her now tear-stained face he realized that the pain from before couldn't compare.

Wiping away her tears furiously, she speaks between sniffles “D-sorry I didn't notice before”

Before anything else can be said Y/n leaves the room. Gally notices the awkward silence when he sees that everyone has just witnessed the two of them interacting.

Approaching him, Ava surprises him with a kick to the shin, causing him to recoil with a shriek “What was that for?” he complains.

“You've got to be kidding me! Do you know how long it took me to get her to risk it like that? Because you're a fucking alpha who can't even take the first step? I was happy for you but seeing how you ruined everything - Shit! For months I've had to listen to you complain about how violent we omegas are and when one is finally affectionate with you, you push her away? You don't deserve her!” Ava screams with tears in her eyes.

Gally breathes unevenly and the moment he finally realizes what he's done, he runs outside to catch up with Y/n.

___

When a hand grabs her arm and forces her to stop, she doesn't even need to look to know who it is. She knew that touch all too well.

“Y/n wait, I didn't mean it like that”

“No. I understood perfectly” She says as calmly as she can while avoiding the blue eyes she loves so much.

“It's not that. Listen, I just can't take it any more than-”

“I get it! The others were right but I was too stubborn to listen. You're an idiot! And you know what? They were right to growl at you and bite you too.”

“Y/n-” Gally tries to say, the pain evident in his voice.

“Leave me alone!” Y/n shouts earning a few glances from other gladers not far from them.

Taking a deep breath, she turns and walks away from Gally, this time he doesn't follow her. She wanted to be everything to him, she wanted to love him, she wanted to care for him and pamper him but all the time she tried to do so she was nothing but a burden and that fact hurt more than anything.

___

Hi” Nora says, finding Y/n lying in a hammock next to hers, which wasn't there before ‘This isn't your place’ she comments.

Y/n laughs, Nora obviously already knew what was going on “I don't think I can take the title of Gally's girl any further”

Nora gives her a crooked smile “Ava thought you'd like to know that the new greenie is another alpha”

“Why didn't she come?”

“She says she hasn't changed her mind yet and insisting that Gally really likes you now will only make you worse”

“She's stubborn” Y/n says laughing through her tears.

“It won't be long before the party starts. Come with us” Nora asks with a pleading look.

Y/n thinks for a few minutes before sighing at Nora's pleading look. Sighing, she lets out a small “Okay” and allows Nora to help her up.

Even though at first Y/n didn't want to come, she had to admit that she was enjoying herself, Lia, Nora and Ava were always with her. Talking, laughing and drinking were what she needed. It might have been perfect if her gaze wasn't constantly returning to a certain alpha who was fighting in the circle. It was obvious to everyone that he was distracted, by now everyone knew about the argument if only because they had arrived at the party separately and hadn't spoken to each other. What's more, Gally was losing several fights that he would never have lost otherwise.

Y/n wanted to do something to help him but quickly suppressed the thought when he remembered.

I'm just a burden.

“Is that her? She's cute” Y/n hears an unfamiliar voice comment, watching him she realizes that must be the new greenie.

“I don't like him. He's crazy” Ava comments between them when she sees Y/n looking at the alpha.

“Are you crazy? I already explained to you that she's Gally's” Doug explains.

“That's not what's going around” He comments laughing.

“He has a death wish” Ava declares furious at his comments.

“They broke up, right? Besides, Gally doesn't look as strong as everyone here says,” he continues, pointing to where Gally had just lost another fight.

Y/n frowns and a low growl sounds from her at the derogatory comments about her alpha Gally. She didn't like him either.

“If she's free what's stopping me from trying?” He says getting up and heading towards the group of omegas before Doug can stop him.

Y/n's nose wrinkles as he gets closer and she smells his cloying scent.

“What's up, princess? What do you say we go for a walk together?” He says with a smile that Y/n would classify as disgusting. The use of the nickname that only Gally can use increases her anger, but just as she's about to tell him to fuck off, a voice interrupts.

“What are you doing greenie?” Gally's rough voice says and the whole clearing falls silent to watch.

“I'm just an alpha talking to a single omega, is there a problem?” He says with a provocative tone.

Gally saws his jaw, it was true that technically she wasn't anyone's, but that didn't mean he was going to let that half-wit greenie bother her and think he had a chance. Especially when he could smell the uncomfortable scent of Y/n from where he stood.

“How about you show what you're made of before you start hitting on someone?”

He finally stands up, moving away from Y/n and towards Gally.

They both positioned themselves in the circle, Gally knew that today was not a good day. He had no doubt that he was stronger than the greenie but with all the confusion in his head he needed to think calmly.

Looking over the greenie's shoulder he could see Y/n watching them. It was okay if she didn't forgive him, he was an idiot not to see what was right in front of him and Ava was right, he didn't deserve her but if it was any use it was to keep unwanted alphas away. At least he would make sure that idiot didn't bother her again.

“I can't wait to see what she'll say when you lose,” the greenie laughs.

Gally saws his jaw hard but instinctively remembers all the times Y/n told him to keep calm and not act impulsively. Unfortunately for the greenie, that thought helped Gally and he got the better of him.

“As if that proves anything, there's nothing stopping me from going to her and-” the defeated alpha says as he gets up, but a Gally punch interrupts him and knocks him back to the ground.

“Don't come near my omega again,” Gally shouts, grabbing the collar of the greenie's shirt and growling. Before realizing that he had called her his in front of everyone when he had no right to. Then he stands up ready to leave.

My omega. The words had been reverberating in Y/n's mind ever since they came out of Gally's mouth, leaving her breathing ragged. Did he really consider her his? Of course, Ava had told him several times, but hearing Gally declare it in front of everyone was different.

“As if she'd run to you. You're nothing but a violent, rude alpha,” he said, standing up and wiping the blood from his mouth.

The last sentence made something inside Y/n snap.

“Y/n, this-” Lia begins, but before she can finish Y/n has already gotten up and headed towards the circle.

Gally is about to reply when she sees Y/n walking towards her. To his disappointment she walks past him without a single glance, although with trepidation he turns to see what she's going to do.

“Y/n-” The alpha begins with a smile when he is interrupted by a slap. He looks at her in surprise.

“I don't care what you say about me, but you have no right to sully my alpha's name with your filthy mouth.”

The statement makes Gally's heart race, did she really say he was her alpha? He doesn't have long to process it before the greenie tries to advance on the omega but Gally is quicker and puts himself between the two to protect her.

“Okay, that's enough!” Alby declares, “I told you about the fourth rule, right? Don't mess with other people's omegas.”

“It's just that a few minutes ago it was rumored that it didn't belong to him”

S/n gently hugs Gally's arm, making him look at her. He gently releases his arm from her grip and wraps his arms around her, pulling her to his chest.

“It was said. Maybe you should have listened better what was being said. Y/n has been Gally's since her first day. An argument won't change that.”

Everyone around agrees with Alby.

“You're spending your first night in the pit greenie,” Alby declares as Minho and Ben grab him.

Gradually the gladers gather around but Y/n and Gally remain in the same position until she speaks.

“Your omega?”

“Your alpha?” He retorts

“I had it before”

Gally swallows, remembering how he reacted that morning.

“I thought you were kidding me” He sighs.

Y/n lifts his face from Gally's chest to meet his gaze “Why would I be joking?”

“I don't know, I just - it didn't seem real that you could really like me”

Y/n frowns “Why not?” She asks but he doesn't answer. Instead he rests his forehead on her shoulder.

Omega feels her heart breaking. Was he really that insecure?

“Alpha” Y/n calls out to him, making him look at her. With a sweet smile she closes the distance between them. As their lips touch she can feel him relax completely and put his hands on her waist pressing her further into him.

“I love you” Gally and Y/n declare at the same time as they break the kiss. Laughing, he pulls her back in for another kiss.

“I noticed you took your hammock away from mine” Y/n blushes as he realizes “Which means you'll have to sleep with me in mine tonight”.

Y/n laughs “Was that supposed to be a punishment?”

That night and the next until they finally built their own hut they shared the hammock. Y/n was already considered Gally's girl before but now no soul could dare doubt it.

Watching her sleep on his chest, Gally couldn't help but feel stupid for having thought she was just playing with him. Although he still didn't know exactly what she saw in him, now he had no doubt that they both felt the same way.

Hey dear :D can you tell us about your headcanons on Jango training the Alphas ? :D

I finally got here to answer this ask. <3

And ooooh boy do I have??? Only angsty ones, love.

I use RepComm lore as a base of my headcanons, just to make clear in what continuity I'm creating in. And that means: NO INHIBITOR CHIPS.

The whole idea of the Clone Army revolves around one thing ultimately: to completely exterminate the jedi. To create an army that is ready for the decisive moment of taking down the enemies of the Sith without the jedi even noticing what is coming at them.

The trainers of course didn't know that this is the ultimate goal of the army, but they knew they had to train a whole army for a future war that who knows when will come. They had be loyal. And they had to be effective.

Every trainer had different approach:

Kal Skirata used love and insisted on the importance of comradeship which ultimately didn't necesserily made his commandos loyal to the Republic, but to each other.

Walon Vau used harsh discipline and insisted on the importance to make his commandos remember: they are superior than others and they have the most important mission in their life. Nothing awaits them outside because they have everything they need: their duty. Vau's trainees remained loyal even after the regime change.

And then we have the Alpha ARC Troopers trained by Jango Fett.

The Alpha ARCs in their mind are the unaltered version of Jango Fett. 100 copy of Jango Fett with their brain remained untouched (compared to the Nulls who's brain was tampered with). Meaning, the Alpha's undying loyalty to the Republic is not pre-programmed, it is not in their genes. It is conditioned with traditional methods: And that is FEAR.

More under the cut

Jango Fett didn't care about the clones and I will sparta-kick everyone from this hill who tries to fight me. I don't have a single worldbuilding where Jango was a "good daddy" for the Clones. He was a great, loving and caring father to Boba and Boba alone.

For him, the clones are products, but also they are part of his agenda: Even he dies, there will be millions of Jango Fetts who will fulfill his revenge of killing off all the Jedi.

The books often mention that Jango was a sociopath (meaning he is on the spectrum of ASPD), and this template was able to make the clones to be so effective. His brain is just built different and wasn't cluttered with moral based inhibitions. That's why I think that Jango wasn't actually a sadist who enjoyed tormenting his trainees - The Alphas - out of joy and personal amusement. It served the purpose, it was all pragmatic.

There wasn't any more description what was Alpha's training like on Kamino but these little snippets of lores made my brain go brrrrrrr about the theories. If the Alphas - THE ALPHAS!!!! - were scared of Jango it could mean that their training included something that gave a reason to fear him.

We know that he installed his own commands into the Alphas such us destroying the Clone Facility in case of Separatist attack on Kamino which Alpha-17 almost fulfilled. But also, being unquestionably loyal to the Jedi. For me, these commands weren't installed. I truly love the unaltered brain-Alphas.

-- Physical pain --

When you are in the military and under training, the line between educational violence and actual physical abuse is very thin. Insubordination had to be punished. Jango had to make sure that the Alphas remain loyal despite not having the same inhibitions like the rest of the clones, so there must have been exercises where he tested how far the Alphas would go to fullfill their duties, achieve victory, enforce an order, AT ALL COST.

They had to put through physical hell, pushed over their limits, pushed over their thresholds and beyond. If caught crying, if caught showing pain, if caught showing the single muscle of questioning Jango's orders, they had to be punished. They weren't made to compete with each other, but they also couldn't protect each other publicly when Jango punished the Alphas for insubordination. They had to watch. They had to learn from it.

The Alphas found secret ways to communicate with each other. To find comfort in each other in one way or another. Oh they knew the concept of love and caring. They watched Jango and Boba from the distance. The reassuring words. The caring touches of a father. They watched how the Nulls were running to their precious sergeant for comfort when hurt. They were very much aware that this is not something they would get.

-- RECONDITION: THE ULTIMATE DEATH --

The Alphas needed only one case of serious insubordination to learn their places and that was Alpha-Ø2. He was truly an independent mind and free-thinker, a true inspiration to thrive for individualism in the sea of Jango Fetts. Spar refused to comply and refused to sworn loyalty to "a republic" which he didn't knew.

And one day Alpha-Ø2 disappeared. Only to return without his memories. Returning without his fiery temper, without his free-spirit... and without any knowledge of how he used to love his Alpha-brothers dearly.

The brainwashing of the Alphas were so much successful later in time, when Alpha-Ø2 - called now Spar - actually deserted at age 8, two years before Geonosis, most of the Alphas felt disgust just by thinking about him - they had to.

Alphas had to believe that Spar was the utter disgrace to the Republic, otherwise it would mean, that they were actually treated wrong.

They had no idea that Spar's desertion was orchestrated by Mij Gilamar and Jango Fett himself after Spar regained his memories - probably the only mercy Jango showed for a clone.

-- Jango had to find the perfect balance --

The Kaminoans wanted soldiers who are independent thinkers but still loyal. Completely supressing their individualism wasn't an option, learned from Spar's case.

What the Alphas did in their non-existent freetime wasn't his business. But the Alphas had to drop everything that is them, when Jango ordered them to do so.

Jango hated every form of authority and realized that the Alphas inherited this trait for his disdain. So he used this train in them to be more effective as advisors for the Jedi. The Alphas had to make sure the Jedi survive until the critical point after all.

Alpha-17 is the smartest of them and the closest thing they had for Spar, which made him always walking on thin ice.

Tavo and Sull, lovebirds.

Maze had knowledge of wide variety of things due to reading forbidden literature that wasn't their in their curriculum.

Fordo communicated only through sign language due to trauma, and his closest friends learned too so they can speak to each other. He only spoke when Jango ordered him to do so.

They were smart enough to know what is was truly considered disobedience. And that was going against the Republic and Jango. If they comply to these rules, they will be safe.

-- ALPHA vs NULL conflict --

Jango always had to remind the Alphas that they were expected to be better than their precedessors, the Nulls. If they fail to meet with the standards, they won't have "a kal skirata" to save them from recondition.

Alpha-Ø2 sure didn't have.

The Alphas after a while didn't need outside motivation to be obedient and loyal. Because they were meant to be everything the Nulls couldn't be. Seeing the examples with their own eyes, how chaotic the Nulls were, how the Nulls as children were actually unruly and sadistic toward the kaminoan technicians, how they disobeyed everyone who was not Kal Skirata, they finally saw what is expected from them: BE BETTER THAN THEM.

And they finally found their positive reassurance on their own. How to take pride in being the true servants of the Republic. Only the Nulls didn't give a shit about this rivalry. They didn't care about Jango or the Alphas or being better than the Alphas.

Being obedient without question was totally against he Alphas nature but they tried. They tried fucking hard.

Alphas: We are the perfect soldiers of the Republic because we are obedient, well-behaved, and we don't cause trouble to our trainers unlike you.

Nulls: We are perfect soldiers because Kal'buir said so, nyenyenyeeeee!!!

Indeed. That Alpha's didn't have "a kal skirata" in their life to tell them they are enough. That they are perfect. That they do the best. Because their best was never enough.

And they weren't enough.

The Alpha ARCs deemed to be failure in the end and their template genes weren't put in to mass-production. When the deployment to Geonosis began, they realized that they weren't meant to be used in the battle and it almost broke them.

Despite their effort and hard work, the Alphas still deemed a failure. Unpredictable, unruly, and because they didn't have any inhibition in them, the Kaminoan didn't trust that they would fulfill their roles. Alphas had to watch the Nulls leave to Geonosis while they were put into stasis.

They didn't have "a kal skirata" to save them from this fate. They didn't have Jango Fett, he wasn't there at all.

They were all alone.

-- Did Jango's approach work? --

My answer is: no.

Despite the conditioning, the Alphas had wide-variety of reactions to the Republic, to the Jedi, and Order 66.

Some were able to shake down the effects of the conditioning, and realized that this dead man won't come after them from the grave to punish them for disobedience.

Some Alpha deserted and died by the hands of Clone Assassins sent after them during the Clone Wars.

Some Alpha remained loyal to Jango's orders, the Republic and then the Empire, training the new generation of soldiers.

Some Alpha went into hiding and became bounty hunters.

Ultimately, how they interacted with the world around them as individual and how the environment treated them decided their own fate.

Notes: Happy birthday, @mamuzzy!!! 🥳 I really hope you like what I made 💙 I got permission from ithilia to use this art piece as the header because it kind of matched a scene 🫶🏻 My inspiration for the fic came from a highly unusual source, an episode of Bonanza (an American Western TV show from the 60s). Specifically, the first three minutes of this episode 😂 I'm gonna say loosely inspired, lol.

Prompt Day 6 - AU @ordomaze2024

Read on AO3

Music Vibe:

Maze cracked his stiff neck with a loud pop as he walked towards the beeping caf maker, his eyes barely open as his body moved on auto-pilot. He slept poorly last night thanks to his beloved mate, Ordo. He kept tossing and turning throughout the night and landed several too-well-placed kicks to be considered accidental into Maze's side. It wasn't like it never happened–Ordo was rough with everything, including sleep–but this was too much.

Maze opened the cabinet above the counter and pulled out his favorite mug. It wasn't that pretty, but it was a gift from Ordo, and the words 'GAR's Best Alpha Null' were written in black ink across the white surface. He had to admit it was funny, but Maze thought it would've been smarter to just put 'GAR's Best Captain', so it made sense for both of them to use, but arguing that point wasn't worth it. Arguing any point with Ordo wasn't worth it.

He grabbed the handle of the glass carafe and yawned as he poured its freshly percolated contents into his mug, accidentally overflowing while his eyes were closed. The hot caf spilled over the edge, down the side of the mug, and dripped onto the floor next to his bare feet. He cursed under his breath and placed the mug down on the counter. If this indicated how the rest of his day would go, it would be a bothersome day.

With his right hand, he pulled the towel hanging from the oven handle off and dropped it onto the spilled caf, then used his foot to mop it up because it was too early to exert that much energy before he drank his first mug of caf. Once it was cleaned, he grabbed the mug off the counter, careful not to spill it again, and lowered his lips to suck some off the top so he could walk with it. It was still hot, and he grimaced as it burnt his tongue, but it tasted good.

After a few careful steps, he sat down at the kitchen table and set the mug on the drink coaster Ordo also gave him. This one read 'shabuir' and was clearly in Ordo's handwriting. He then put his glasses on and picked up his data-pad to read the news. The spring solstice had just arrived a few rotations ago, and the news was chock full of headlines like, 'Mating Season Must-Haves', 'How to Boost Your Chances at a Full Litter', and 'Tips and Tricks for First-Timers'.

Maze scoffed and rolled his eyes. He wished one of those stupid articles written by a teenager could help him, but unfortunately, Alpha and Null clones didn't come with basic instruction manuals and all the normal things that normal mates did never worked for them. It wasn't their first mating season, far from it, but the last one was completely miserable for both of them and he hoped this one would be slightly better. A lot of that depended on Ordo.

Speaking of Ordo, the fact that he was still in the bedroom sleeping, and the sun was already shining through the bay window, wasn't a good sign. Morning caf was one of their only civil times together, and if he slept in any later, he'd also miss their mid-morning sparring session. Neither was willing to get soft in front of the other and brawling on a mat to start the day was the best way to prove it. It also was a good way to release pent-up frustration.

The shower afterward always felt good, too. If he won, he could enjoy some hot and steamy shower sex without an argument, but if Ordo won, he usually showered alone. Which wasn't the worst thing he could get for losing. It's not that Ordo didn't like sex, he just didn't like sex with Maze, which also made zero sense. Others, even brothers, found their arrangement odd, but that was their relationship and Maze wouldn't have it any other way.

A loud thud came from the bedroom, and within seconds a sweet and tantalizing aroma wafted past Maze's nose. He scrunched his face and forcefully blew air out of his nostrils to clear the scent before it made its way to his brain. It was pretty powerful, even from a distance, and Maze lifted the mug to his lips to try and mask it. It worked until the hot liquid steamed up his glasses and he couldn't see the news article he was reading.

Several more loud thud came from the bedroom and Maze sighed. Placing his mug down, he got up to see if Ordo was okay. Maker only knew what he was doing in there. As Maze approached the bedroom, the scent drifting out of the open doorway was so strong he choked on it. Maze clamped his fingers around his nose and then flicked the light switch on with the other to shed some light on the situation.

The sight that greeted him made his eyes widen and his jaw drop. Their bedroom looked like it had been hit by a thermal detonator, or two. All the furniture had been moved out of place, but none of it was rearranged, just crooked and unorganized. The bed sheets were falling off the bed, the curtains were halfway off the windows, and their clothing was scattered across the floor. It was as if Ordo attempted to make a nest, but gave up halfway through.

And then there was Ordo, half-undressed and sprawled out on his back on the bed, like a starfish, with his head hanging over the far edge. His bare chest glistened with sweat and his shorts were visibly damp. He looked completely disheveled and very uncomfortable.

"Null," Maze said, his voice nasally from holding his nose shut.

"Alpha," Ordo answered, not bothering to pick his head up.

"Can you close your legs?" Maze asked. "Your Eau de Omega is leaking out."

Ordo swiped his hand down his sweaty stomach but left his legs where they were. "No. It's too hot."

Maze tilted his head out of the room and looked at the thermostat on the wall. It was set to a nominal temperature and was comfortable to him, but he wouldn't say it was hot. It took a second to click, but when the realization hit him that what he thought was going to happen, was now happening, he leaned against the door frame and sighed. "Of course you're hot. You're going into heat."

Ordo groaned loudly. "Over my dead body."

Maze gave up on keeping Ordo's 'please-mate-with-me' scent away and relinquished his grip on his nose. He took a deep inhale and allowed the strong odor to fill his lungs until his extremities tingled with anticipation. His body shuddered, but he kept his mind in check. It was inevitable at this point and there was no use in trying to ignore it, but his main focus now was getting them both through this mating cycle alive, and with Ordo, that wasn't easy.

He sat down on the edge of the bed next to one of Ordo's outstretched legs and ran his hand down the dampened hair and skin. "You know you can't fight it."

Ordo bent the leg and kicked Maze in the side. "I'm a Null," he said. "I can fight anything."

"Did you forget about last cycle?" Maze asked as he rubbed his side, annoyance already simmering under the surface. He needed to be more careful about touching him.

Ordo was quiet before he responded. "That doesn't count."

Maze smiled knowingly. "And the one before that?"

Ordo sat up, leaving an obvious damp splotch on the bed sheet beneath where he was lying. "This is karking stupid!" he shouted, clearly trying to change the subject from Maze being right and him being wrong. "I wasn't made for this." He scooted forward and leaned his forehead against Maze's back, a deceptively sweet gesture, and panted into his shirt as the heat from his body radiated off of him like the sun.

"Technically, you were," Maze said, noting that it probably still wasn't safe to touch Ordo even though he was touching him. "All the Nulls are omegas."

"And I hate it!" Ordo yelled. He gripped Maze's shirt, clutching the fabric with tight fists. "It's degrading. I'm a cold-blooded killer, not someone's cock-drunk knot-loving baby-making bitch. I'm not gonna push out any stupid babies or push around some karking stroller."

"Do you remember what Kal told you about omegas? Maze asked, trying to redirect his emotions.

Ordo rolled his eyes and groaned into Maze's shoulder blade, biting the shirt there for emphasis.

Maze chuckled. "C'mon, tell me."

"That omegas are highly valued members of Mandalorian society because children and family and blah, blah, blah," Ordo mumbled.

"And you don't think you're a valued member of Mandalorian society?" Maze asked, turning his head slightly to try and get a look at Ordo's face.

"I'm a verd," Ordo argued. "It's different."

Maze snorted. "If you said that to a group of Mandalorian omega warriors, they'd beat your ass into the ground like a tent stake."

Ordo whined and rubbed his sweaty cheek on the piece of shirt he had bitten. "I already know I'm a terrible omega. No need to rub it in…"

Maze sighed and let himself fall backward onto the bed. He landed with a soft plop and laced his fingers together under his head as he stared up at the ceiling fan while his legs dangled over the edge. Ordo was a tough case to crack, and they went around in this same circle every mating season. It was exhausting to constantly reassure Ordo's status as an omega, but it's what he signed up for, and he wasn't about to be called a quitter now.

Ninety-nine percent of modern society was made up of female-oriented omegas, but for some stupid reason, no one fully understood, the Kaminoans decided the first clones would be genetically altered to be male-oriented omegas. Their flawed logic was that they could curb Prime's alpha aggression by splicing his alpha DNA with omega DNA, which statistically would make them more submissive and docile, but it backfired, and the Nulls suffered for it.

Maze turned his head to the side and stretched out his right hand to brush it along Ordo's spine. "Null," he said. Ordo didn't turn around. "Ordo, look at me."

Ordo twisted his torso around to face him and Maze's eyes softened at what he saw. Sweat poured off Ordo's face like raindrops on a window pane, his hair soaked from root to tip, and it looked like he was hiding a painful ache somewhere deep within his body. It wasn't Ordo's fault that he was made like this–an abomination of nature in more ways than one–and it was heartbreaking for Maze to watch his alpha and omega sides war with each other.

"You're not a terrible omega," Maze said. "You're just… a little messed up, like me."

Ordo huffed, but there was a hint of fondness in his eyes. "I'm more messed up."

"And more beautiful," Maze added with a grin. His eyes lowered to the dimples peeking out above Ordo's shorts and he couldn't help but let his mind run a little wild with all the things he wanted to do to him. His alpha instincts were kicking in and kicking in hard.

Ordo looked shocked and whipped his head back around. For a split second Maze thought he messed up, but was pleasantly surprised when Ordo stood up, took his shorts off, tossed them somewhere onto the floor, and then turned around to face him. Maze was dumbstruck at the sight. Ordo's entire body glistened with a sheen of sweat, and his upright position caused slick to ooze out of him. He was the most gorgeous omega he'd ever seen.

"Stop staring," Ordo said, casting his gaze to the side. "It's embarrassing."

Maze propped himself up on his elbows to get a better look, eyes glued to the trails of slick now running wild down Ordo's thighs, then looked up at his face. "Do you want me to take my glasses off?" His voice was hoarse and he took a second to clear it. "You know I'm blind as a bat without them."

Ordo put his hands on his hips and shifted his weight to one leg. "Just shut up and take your stupid cock out before I change my mind."

"Don't have to tell me twice," Maze said with a small laugh. He lifted his hips and slipped his sweatpants off, revealing his large cock that was already hardening with excitement. He wrapped his left hand around the shaft and lazily stroked himself until it was standing firm. "How do you want to do this?"

"Scoot back," Ordo said, gesturing the order with a nod of his head. "I wanna be on top."

Maze did as he was told, moving back up the bed until his full body was splayed out. He didn't have an issue with Ordo taking control; it only meant he'd have to throw his alpha instincts into the backseat. Which wasn't the most difficult thing to do, but it was annoying. He wanted to pounce on Ordo like a regular alpha and omega pair would do, but he couldn't. Mating season was hard enough on normal mated pairs, but this was as good as it was going to get for them.

However, even though Maze followed the instructions perfectly, Ordo still looked hesitant standing in front of him. "Can't you just take it off and let me do it myself?" Ordo asked.

Maze laughed. "If I could, I would." It all sounded like a silly joke, but Maze knew well enough that there was a touch of sincerity in that request, and he took it seriously. "We don't have to do this, you know. They make alpha-sized dildos for–"

"No!" Ordo interrupted. He took a deep breath. "I just–" he shook his head. "I want to be a good omega–I do–but every time I try, I– I mess it up. My brain, my body, my heart, my instincts, and my training can't seem to agree on anything and it jumbles it all up into a big mess in my head."

"Which one is speaking to you the loudest?" Maze asked.

"My body," Ordo said without much thought. "Stars, I need a knot so badly, it kriffin' hurts. I feel so… empty." He visibly bristled and Maze could tell Ordo was uncomfortable admitting that much information.

"Then put the other voices in a box and take them back out later when your body is satisfied," Maze said. "Focus only on your needs at this moment. Close your eyes. Regulate your breathing. Empty your mind of everything other than what you need right now."

Ordo didn't hesitate. He closed his eyes and breathed deeply.

Maze could only imagine what was running through Ordo's head at that moment if anything at all. Nulls were good at separating themselves into neat little compartments to make war easier, but in this type of situation, Ordo needed a little more patience and a little more guidance to get him to a point where he could do it. On a mission? It was completely automatic. But in a domestic relationship? It was like herding tookas.

Ordo opened his eyes after a minute and Maze could tell he had succeeded in the exercise because his pupils were blown wide and slick poured out of him, plopping wetly onto the hardwood floor beneath. Maze was a bit surprised by the major shift and wondered just how much Ordo was holding back and how painful it must've been to do so. But even if Ordo was on board now, it didn't give Maze free rein to do as he pleased.

"What do you want?" Maze asked, his voice low and gentle.

"I want your knot," Ordo said. "Right now."

"Take it," Maze said, releasing his hand from the thick shaft and leaning back. "It's all yours." He knew Ordo still wanted to be in charge, even after he shoved that part of his personality aside for the time being, and he wasn't about to betray his trust by taking it back, even if his alpha instincts screamed at him to slam Ordo's face into the floor and mount him.

Ordo wasted no time and climbed on top of Maze, straddling his thick, muscular thighs, but he leaned forward past the swollen cock between them and smashed his lips against Maze's in a brutal kiss. It took Maze a second to process what was happening, but once he did, his cock twitched with excitement beneath Ordo's stomach and he wrapped his hands around Ordo's thighs, squeezing them until he bruised the skin beneath his fingertips.

Ordo bit Maze's bottom lip in retaliation, drawing blood and smearing it with his lips as he continued to kiss Maze like he owned him. But, before Maze could react to the pain, Ordo broke the kiss and licked the blood that pooled on his lips, effectively swallowing any noise Maze wanted to make in the process. Then he stopped, panting heavily, and Maze could see he was still struggling internally. His eyes were back to pinpoints, and he looked conflicted.

Maze lifted his head and nuzzled Ordo's neck with his swollen, bleeding lips, skating them over the faded mating mark he made the cycle before. He'd need to refresh that at some point, but not now. Following Ordo's jawline, he strung together a set of kisses to his earlobe and nibbled on it gently. "Don't forget what you need," he whispered. "You can murder me afterward."

Ordo growled and sat up. Maker, it was a glorious sight to see Ordo sitting on top of him, sweat running down his sculpted chest in narrow rivulets, slightly curving around his raised pecks, and then collecting at his navel where it mixed with the precum that leaked from his stiff and neglected cock. It was a shame that Ordo didn't understand how beautiful he was as an omega, but no matter how hard Maze tried, it never sunk in.

Another deep growl rumbled out of Ordo's chest and he ground his hips down, letting his first moan of pleasure fall from his lips. Now he was stalling and Maze was getting impatient. Maze grabbed his cock and squeezed it with exaggerated movements, trying to get Ordo to focus his attention on what he really needed. If Ordo didn't take his knot, then this whole thing was a waste of time and they both would be worse off than when they started.

"C'mon, Ordo," Maze goaded as he continued to stroke himself seductively. "Don't tell me you're afraid of it. Big, bad Null afraid of an Alpha's cock."

"I'm not afraid of anything," Ordo sneered, still grinding his hips in a rhythmic motion against Maze's thighs.

"Then kriffin' sit on it already!" Maze yelled, finally allowing himself to verbalize his frustration. "I don't have all day." He didn't enjoy being rough with Ordo when he was in this kind of vulnerable state, but it was either that or lay there and get blue balls while he waited for him to make up his mind.

Ordo stopped moving and twisted his face into a snarl. "Don't yell at me!"

Maze snarled back. "I wouldn't have to yell at you if you would just stop being a pussy and sit on it!"

"Fine!" Ordo shouted. He lifted his hips and lined up his opening to Maze's cock, then slammed himself down. The movement was so precise and quick that it made an audible smacking sound and the rapidly displaced slick made an obscene squelch.

Maze felt the wind get knocked out of his lungs when Ordo's full weight smashed down onto his cock, squishing his already full balls painfully between his legs. He had to consciously tell himself not to vomit from the pain, because if he did, Ordo would probably let him drown in it and suffocate to death. It was a big maybe, but it wasn't a maybe that Maze wanted to play around with while Ordo had him pinned.

"There," Ordo said, crossing his arms over his chest. "Happy now? I'm sitting on it."

Maze's response came out as a strained wheeze. "You did that on purpose."

"I did what you told me to do," Ordo said with a mocking tone. "Not my fault if your instructions were unclear, Captain."

Maze thumped the back of his head against the mattress and groaned. He didn't understand it. He'd never understand it. Every mating cycle turned into the same thing; a fight. Outside of the mating season, they could have mostly normal, ordinary, everyday sex like everyone else in the galaxy, but something about mating season always got Ordo's panties in a bunch and it turned out like this. And now, his patience for their game was almost gone.

Maze picked his head up after a minute. "Can you at least move a little bit?"

Ordo shrugged. "You didn't ask me to move."

"Maker, you have a smart mouth," Maze said, narrowing his eyes. His annoyance meter was narrowly away from its breaking point. "Maybe I should stick my knot in your mouth instead. At least you'd shut up for a while."

Ordo clenched his jaw and leaned over Maze's chest, giving his cock a little taste of the friction it desired, and brought his eyes only millimeters away from Maze's. "I will slit your throat in your sleep."

Maze knew it wasn't an empty threat, none of Ordo's threats were fully empty, but he smiled and took the opportunity to capture Ordo's lips with his. He thought Ordo would fight him, but he didn't, so he slid his tongue across the crease of his lips, tasting his blood from earlier, and Ordo surprisingly opened his mouth to let him in. Seizing the best opportunity he had, he went to work exploring Ordo's mouth with his tongue.

However, it was also a sneaky little trick and he slowly smoothed his hands down Ordo's back and sides until they settled on his hips. As he deepened the kiss, he gently pushed and pulled Ordo's hips back and forth, guiding him into a steady rhythm to give them both the friction they so desperately needed. Eventually, Ordo began moving his hips on his own and releasing short, puffy moans that Maze enjoyed.

"That's it," Maze praised into Ordo's neck. He thrust his hips up experimentally and Ordo moaned louder. "That's a good boy."

"Don't–ah–call me that," Ordo said, but his words had no bite, not while he was pleasuring himself on Maze's cock. "I'm not–ah–your good–ah–boy. Ah!"

Ordo sat up, hands braced on Maze's stomach, and rocked his hips faster and harder, now meeting Maze's thrusts in earnest. His pupils overtook his irises once again and his mouth fell open to release heady moans of pleasure. It was music to Maze's ears, seeing Ordo return to being his horny omega; so desperate and needy for his cock. Now all he had to do was stare up at his beautiful mate and focus on finishing strong.

It wouldn't take long with the way Ordo squeezed his cock. Normally, during mating season it would feel cavernous, like it could never fully be filled, but not this time. This time it was tighter, and every time Ordo slid himself up and back down, the drag on the head of his cock made him see stars. He didn't need to reach the end of it, he didn't need to hit a goal post, he just needed the drag against Ordo's ribbed walls. It felt incredible like it always did.

"I'm gonna come," Maze said, his voice breathy. He could feel his balls tightening and his knot began to inflate, catching on Ordo's opening. His brain was turning to mush, but he still needed to hold out for a little bit longer to make sure Ordo didn't try to rip his knot out after it inflated. "Do you want it? You gotta tell me you want it."

"Maker, yes!" Ordo moaned, seating himself on the bulbous base after the last downward stroke. He wiggled his hips and nestled down to let it fully inflate inside him. "Please. I need your knot."

That was all Maze needed to hear before he allowed himself to pursue the building tension in his lower abdomen. He was so close, but he needed just a little more to push him over the edge. He focused on Ordo's delicious moans, then it suddenly snapped like a taut wire and Maze came with a convulsing cry. The feeling of hot cum gushing out and filling Ordo was overwhelming, and as his knot inflated, binding them together, they both experienced pure bliss.

Maze's mind flooded with instinctual thoughts of how many babies he was making, what Ordo would look like pregnant, and how they'd raise their ik'aad together, but those thoughts were gone as quickly as they came. It's not what Ordo wanted, at least not right now, and if he drilled deep enough into his own psyche, he probably didn't want it either, but it was nice to fantasize about it. It was part of his alpha nature, and so he let himself feel it in the moment.

Ordo collapsed on top of Maze's chest, panting heavily into his neck. Maze nuzzled Ordo's flushed cheek with his own and licked a bead of salty sweat that ran down his nose. Maze could already tell that Ordo's bodily needs were being met and the pain that he felt earlier was being replaced by euphoria. It was also in these small moments that Ordo fully surrendered to the omega part of his personality and let Maze pamper him for a bit, but not long.

"You did good," Maze praised. He wrapped his arms around Ordo's back and massaged his hands up and down the length of his spine, feeling the once-heated skin finally cooling down. He would probably start shivering soon, so Maze briefly removed one of his hands from Ordo to grab the blanket that was half falling off the bed and tossed it on top of him.

Ordo nuzzled in further and groaned, saying something too muffled and incoherent to understand.

Maze nudged Ordo's face out of his neck so he could hear him. "Can you repeat that?"

"Don't tell them," Ordo whispered, his face was still flushed, but it wasn't from the heat. "Please don't tell them I begged for it."

Maze smiled and planted a few strategic butterfly kisses where he could reach. "I won't. That stays between us and only us. No one needs to know what we do behind closed doors."

"And don't ever leave me," Ordo added quickly, gripping Maze's shirt possessively. "I know I'm not easy to deal with, but I can't imagine going through this without you."

"You're a pain in my shebs," Maze said with a light chuckle. It was rare to have Ordo get sappy on him, and as much as he liked it, he knew it was fleeting, and they'd be back to bickering as soon as his knot deflated. "But I wouldn't have it any other way."

Ordo shifted on top of Maze to get more comfortable, but he pulled at the knot in the process and they both moaned at the feeling. "I hate spring," he mumbled.

"Me too," Maze said. He didn't hate it as much as Ordo did, because, in reality, he did have the nice end of the deal, at least in his opinion, but it was still annoying to go through all the motions and emotions so many times. Unfortunately for them, spring had only just begun and there would be plenty more arguments, fights, and aggressive mating sessions before summer rolled around and they could get back to their normal life. "Same time tomorrow?"

Ordo nestled against Maze's chest and closed his eyes to rest. "Only if we have to."
